Turnbuckle Assemblies
BROOKS Series Turnbuckle Assemblies are available in a variety of
diameters, ends, and take-up ranges to satisfy a host of applications.
Our turnbuckles are often used in combination with tension braces on
H-Frame construction when MHC distances are critical. The assemblies,
manufactured from forged carbon steel, are shipped factory assembled
complete with jam nuts. Jaw bolts are furnished complete with the pin
bolt, nut, and stainless steel cotter pin.
